  • Hiya fairy!

    Your freezer must be the most organised, biggest, freezer possible, do you have sticky labels on everything as well so you know what your having or is it a " freezer surprise" night"

    i dont think i could be that organised tbh but i envy you

    Well done with your meal planning as well - I really need to take a leaf out of your book we even bought a second freezer so we could make extra and freeze it

    Right i should have the holiday booked tomorrow!! Fingers crossed!! Will be weird when i realise it is DEFINITELY going to happen!!!

    Got bliming soaked today!!! Got home at 4pm and DD2 and I got into our PJs!! We werent going out again and seemed no point putting more clothes on!!

    My bestfriend is coming round with her children tomorrow! I love her visiting but her kids always wreck my house. They don't have very clean habits and end up getting food everywhere and stamp it into the carpet!! AAARRRGGGHHH

    My birthday this weekend. Being newly MSE this year i am tempted to throw my birthday money at my littlewoods account!!!!!

    Want to think up an exercise plan. I have been good this week but with it being my birthday weekend i know i will cancel it out!! So next week need to try madly to shed the pounds! Last night i went for a half hour bike ride and this morning 25 mins on the cross trainer. I am pretty used to getting up at 6.20am to do it now!!

    But bliming heck my bottom hurts from riding the bike!!! Havent ridden for ages!! Been sitting down pretty gingerly today!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:rotfl:

    Moneywise all is on track. Had a NSD today i have just realised! Love it when that happens!!! Still hoping to make that £50 minimum overpayment to add to the £100 overpayments i have already made. Also got my tax credits renewal pack today meaning they should release this extra £82 when i send it back! :j

    Right off to look at wedding dresses online! The biggest exercise motivator there is!!

    My birthday is tomorrow!

    I'll see how much i get first. I have allocated presents to everyone already so will be looking at about £30 i reckon. I have got everyone to get clothes and jewellery i wanted - so practical!

    About to ring up first choice as no news from them today :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Me and OH are going out for a meal tonight on our tesco vouchers :j SIL and BIL having the kids and keeping them overnight. Though i am a little gutted they wont be here when i wake up :(:(:(:(

    About to make a list to spend £40 in Mr T's! I am getting my mum a £16 slow cooker so will need £24 of food! I reckon it is do able for the £6 off

    Right my house desperately needs a hoover! I hope everyone is having a great day!

    First choice said they will ring me first thing tomorrow :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Back from shopping! My mums slow cooker wasn't there so had to spend £16 more than i planned to get £6 off. It was worht it as all stuff we would need soon.

    Have £33 left of budget though will only need milk and about £2 of veg next week! (i hope) so should be well in! Also we have LOADS to take forwards into June! I have at least 8 meals already in (minus some potatoes) and seeing as we only have 4 proper meals at home together a week this is two weeks worth! Not bad! Hoping for a frugal June. :j:j:j:j
